Advice Needed - First Set up 6-9 Cards.

I'd be happy to help you.

That board should be fine. They say the 13 PCIE slots are too close to each other and some put electrical tape on their risers. If you're only planning on only using 6-9 cards per rig, i'd suggest you get the BIOSTAR TB-250 BTC PRO. In my country the BIOSTAR board is around $10 cheaper too.

But of course with profit maximization in mind, the more GPUs on a single board the more efficiently you get to utilize power consumption of the motherboard, cpu, and other system components. Feel free to tell me more about your desired build.

I would go against biostar. They seem to have bad bios support and don't really continue the life of their products. I would recommend ASRock though.

ASROCK H110 PRO BTC+ is a good option, a LGA 1151 processor is a good option also and I would recommend something above the celeron processor since you are going up to 9 cards, a 8GB DDR4 ram should be more than enough to run any mining rig. For the PSU I would go with 2x ThermalTake toughpower 850watt for 9 cards. That's pretty much it and don't forget best OS from the windows side is WIN 10 with all updates for mining. You can try ethOS too if you like.

Have decided to go for 2 Antminer S9 & An Antminer L3+ what do you guys think?

What will i need also? I am getting power packs with the antminers and will have the rigging & cooling fans sorted just wondering what motherboard/laptop/computer and that i need to go along side the equipment, Sorry guys like i said im new to mining

you fucked up badly since you say you purchased the psu's from bitmain it is too late to fix what you did.

only buy bitmain psu's if you live in china the service is terrible if they die.

and psu's are easy to get  almost anywhere.

Why pay them the shipping?
you can get better quality local.
they don't  do refunds so if you paid them so sent the richest crypto coin building company money for a psu you could have purchased locally.

anytime I find a person that purchased a psu from them  I simply tell them you fucked up unless you live in china .


the s-9 and l3  do not need a pc  other then to set them up.

you need a modem to the net a router and a ethernet switch.

3 ethernet cables into the ether net switch.   and you can set them up with any pc window mac to linux .


you have no idea how pissed I get to see newcomers buying psu's from bitmain.  but good luck with your mining .


buy psu's from bitmain is like buying steaks from Donald Trump

Just to let everyone here know that farnhamit is James Wright and he scammed a lot of people on Facebook with his ponzi scheme ecobitcoin.co. He's still the admin of the FB group Plexcoin where he started his scam. He probably used the bitcoins (more than 11) that he stole to buy this hardware.

You're a well known scammer, James Wright.

one more to take note is the risers(preferred the v006c), be careful in buying those cheap china risers if your gonna run 6-9 GPU always check for the cable as this ones are the main cause of fire

That was someone you scammed. I am someone you scammed too. You have been scamming people for years, but you are near the end of scamming. You should have used that money you stole to get as far away from Watford as you could.... We are coming to get you James Wright!
